All About Faux Swiss Meringue Buttercream | My NEW Go To Buttercream | Buttercream Series Pt. 2

It's the only buttercream I make. I reduced the egg whites a bit instead of adding more butter to stiffen it up a bit. I never sift the powdered sugar.

I am a newbie home baker. I found this Faux recipe for Swiss buttercream a couple months ago and has been my go to when making orders unless American buttercream is specified. It is definitely smoother and isn't as sweet. Not to mention its soft texture but the hold of American buttercream. my first time making I had reservations while whipping thinking it just wasn't goin to peak. Then after a few more minutes it came out so creamy and smooth.

I use this and love it. If you don’t want to sift your powdered sugar, put it in your bowl and use the whisk attachment for about a minute or so. Done! ❤

I have seen this buttercream in other videos but I love how you explain the troubleshooting.

This is my go to buttercream. I used to do Italian merengue buttercream and now this is my go to for most cakes

Yes you have convinced me.

That butter cream looked so smooth.... Love your roses too....💜💜💜💜🌹🌹🌹🌹🥀🥀🥀🥀

Definitely trying this one!!! ❤❤

BTW: when using a purple food coloring to whiten your buttercream or dye it - vegan coloring is NOT the same - You can still use vegan coloring, but just know that the color may develop differently, as it contains natural ingredients. Lavender may turn sky blue, for instance. It’s very susceptible to change depending on temperature, pH and lighting, or it might have a slight flavor. In such a small amount as lightening yellowy buttercream you might ask yourself if it really matters how white it is - and, if it’s a wedding that answer might depend on whether your bride prefers vegan over white buttercream or not. It really shouldn’t make much difference but remember that while purple counteracts yellow, blue with yellow makes green. Hopefully it’s not going to be noticeable, but do test your food coloring ahead of time, (and if it’s your first time doing a wedding cake or something I would definitely encourage you to do a full test run on your cake, so you won’t be encountering any scary surprises at the last minute!

Great video, Yes I will try. Thank you!!

This looks so good! I'm probably going to switch to Faux Swiss Meringue as normal Swiss Meringue isn't to my taste.

This is the buttercream that I use all the time The Best 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤

Yes I am trying that !!!!

Another great informative video🙃

Have you tried Royal Icing Buttercream? I think it’s my all time favorite, it’s exactly what it sounds like you make a royal icing and then add butter. It’s so easy to make, I found the recipe on tiktok a year ago and I haven’t used anything since.

could you do a video on the basic swiss meringue buttercream please?

Looks good but why aren't you answering the questions ?

I’ve had this on my to try list for probably 2 years 😅 I really need to get around to it.😂💖💖💖

What tip did you use for this?? It’s beautiful. I’m a new decorator! My favorite is Italian merangue so I can’t wait to try this because it will be so much easier to make!

I’ve used the pasteurized egg whites to make Swiss buttercream and turned out well. I find it’s more economical to using the granulated sugar as supposed to powder sugar. But, indeed this faux Swiss is easier to make.😊
